    Fluctuating Revs

    Morning All, Noticing my B8.5 S4 2015 revs (rpm) fluctuating whilst in cruise control, similar to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1nCo8-sV6w I've also noticed when accelerating at ~50% throttle the revs/power surges just after changing up gears via paddle shift and then the actual gear...

    Magnetic Clutch for Supercharger - Stuck Open VCDS Error

    Thanks for the feedback, spoke to MRC and they recommended the same as @Dippy. Any recommendations on where to get it done - I live in the west london/Berkshire area? Is there an uprated supercharger clutch to consider?

    Wheel Alignment

    Is that £450 for just wheel alignment!? I use Protyre who charge about £30 per corner. Would advise getting it done after tyres are fitted Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your audi today

    Went to MRC yesterday for a Stage 2 package on the S4. Haven't been able to test the car out much but feels like a different animal! Gear shifts seem violent and acceleration throws you back into your seat. [emoji16] Can finally hear some supercharger whine too. I may remove the air box cover...

    S4 Brake Upgrade - Advice please

    I've heard good things about stoptech so still do some more research on these. DBA discs are also another option I've been looking into. In terms of pads, Hawk come highly recommended and I had these on my previous car too. In regards to the maccan calipers, these come up to approximately £500...

    Jeff's S4

    I managed to get the same deal after a sh1t customer experience from both Watford and Slough Audi. It took them 3 attempts to update the firmware! Take note of the current firmware version and check it after they update it. The latest version at the time was: 8R0 051 884 FK 8R0 060 884 FK ECE...

    2013 S4 Avant mpg

    I made a very similar switch last year. Went from a 2006 A4 special edition Quattro manual petrol to a 2015 S4 (both saloons). From my experience over the last 10 months of ownership of the S4, the S4 is more thirsty in town (this could be down to my heavy right foot :)) but I'd say they are...

    EML after downpipe install on B8 S4

    Not related to the original post but has anyone got any noise clips of the S4 after a DP install. I'm interested in going down this route but not sure if i'd like the sound. Any drone on motorway driving?

    What did you do to your audi today

    Lowered by 30mm on H&R springs. Replaced the rear anti roll by with an OEM RS5 one. Added the transmission mount too (034 Motorsport Chinese replica) Handling and turn in seem improved. Haven't had the chance to properly test out the new ARB yet. Gear changes (especially between 1 - 2) feel...

    What did you do to your audi today

    Will be interesting to hear your feedback on the after a few weeks of use. Are you stage 1/2? I'm thinking of going with the Q5 calipers and better discs pads (currently looking at brembo).

    Recall affecting CREC engines (2014+ S4)

    Had the recall work carried out yesterday. Took them the whole day to get it done! I suspect my car may have been the first one they've completed. It felt like they were being very cautious and not rushing the job due to the potential implications.
